3-D Image and Storage Applications

Autostereoscopic display with glass-free, wide viewing zone, and reality is recognized as future trend. In order to acquire 3-D content for multiview autostereoscopic images, we use the data obtained from 3-D laser scanner and 3-D cam-box for 3-D modeling. The advantage of 3-D cam-box is quick scanning to achieve a 3-D model, and the advantage of 3-D laser scanner is high resolution. In order to make the 3-D image contents quickly, the simulation-based image production process has been proposed for mass production of high quality 3-D image contents. The data storage capacity of multiview image will be multiple of regular 2-D image. The 3-D floating systems can be made by using either aspheric lens or Fresnel lens. For applications, we hope the aspheric lens with high producing cost will be replaced by Fresnel lens. We setup measurement methods to evaluate the optimization results of the 3-D floating image system. Some phenomena caused by lens distortion, such as illumination loss, crosstalk, and optimum viewing distance can degrade the quality of stereoscopic effect. Therefore, reducing lens distortion of optical system is a major problem of interest in 3-D floating image display systems.
